I did this in foil and baked it in the oven because I don't have a steamer, I think the end result was the same because the fish steams in the foil. The combination of flavours was mouth watering. By far the best dish I have ever cooked from this website. Thank you, I will be making this on a regular basis.
A TIP TO SHARE. TO ENHANCE THE FLAVOUR AND TO REMOVE SOME FISHY SMELL, HEAT UP SOME VEGETABLE OIL AND POUR IT MOVER THE STEAMING HOT FISH. IT WILL BRING OUT THE FLAVOUR OF THE HERBS AND GINGER.
Hi, On the show it was mentioned that you could microwave this dish, but presumably you couldn't do it in foil - are there instructions for microwaving for those of us who don't have a steamer? Thanks, Louise
